RantWoman commends the following invitation from Friends Committee On National Legislation to Friends' attention:
FCNL’s Policy Committee has invited Friends to listen deeply in their communities around reproductive health care issues, including abortion. Friends are invited to share the results of their discernment and to offer guidance on what FCNL should say about these issues in its legislative policy statement, The World We Seek.
As Friends begin holding these critical and challenging conversations, FCNL is hosting an event with members of the Policy Committee to offer perspectives and advice on how to engage your Quaker community in this undertaking.
Please register to join our conversation on Wednesday, March 22, at 6:30 p.m. EDT.
|
We will hear from Genie Stowers, an FCNL Policy Committee member, and Lauren Brownlee, FCNL’s associate general secretary for community and culture. The discussion will be moderated by the FCNL’s Policy Committee clerk, Ebby Luvaga.
Please note: this event is intended to support people organizing or participating in discernment in their communities. It will not itself be a discernment or listening session.
The Learn More link is reflects a style of dialogue that many Friends of strong opinion may find challenging.
RantWoman also notes thematic resonance about other especially hot buttom health care issues such as gender affirming care and vaccination policies as well as the general questions of all that is wrong with the US health care system.
In any case, interested readers please follow the links and consider your own leadings.
